State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,088 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Owning a really cute pet is grounds for immediate investigation, Leader is too busy listening to praise to get any work done, politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, and kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history.
